What is Bakelite sheet / antistatic Bakelite?Bakelite(Phenolics) are a uniformly dense and structurally strong material that will not soften appreciably under the reapplication of heat. It is an extremely durable plastic that is lightweight and moisture resistant. Industrial laminates are thermoset resin impregnated reinforcing materials (paper, cotton fabric, glass fabric, etc.) that are cured under heat and pressure to form solid shapes having high mechanical and electrical insulating properties. Laminates are available in sheet, rod, and tubes. Since laminates are comprised of a combination of materials, they are also referred to as composites.
